Application

(S)-(+)-3-Bromo-2-methyl-1-propanol is a precursor to synthesize the phase II mexiletine metabolite, (R)-mexiletine N-carbonyloxy-β-D-glucuronide. It can be used in the synthesis of (R)-(+)-muscopyridine, polycavernoside A and (+)-allopumiliotoxin 323B′. It can also be employed in building homochiral porous molecular networks.
